Isaiah 16:4-6
New Catholic Bible
4 Allow the outcasts of Moab
to settle among you,
and be their refuge from the destroyer.
When the oppression has ceased
and the devastation is at an end,
and the marauders who have trampled the land
have finally departed,
5 a throne established in faithful love
will be established in the tent of David,
and on it will sit in fidelity
a judge who offers fair judgment
and is prompt to ensure justice.
6 We have heard about the pride of Moab,
about how truly intense that pride is,
with its arrogance, its pride, and its insolence,
as well as its boasts which have little basis.
Isaiah 16:4-6
New International Version
4 Let the Moabite fugitives stay with you;
be their shelter(A) from the destroyer.”
The oppressor(B) will come to an end,
and destruction will cease;(C)
the aggressor will vanish from the land.
5 In love a throne(D) will be established;(E)
in faithfulness a man will sit on it—
one from the house[a] of David(F)—
one who in judging seeks justice(G)
and speeds the cause of righteousness.
